Super Protein Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter & Jelly Edition


Super Protein Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter & “Jelly” Edition

I must eat peanut butter at least 2 times a day, if not more. I find any excuse to add it to foods, such as grapes, waffles, banana bread, oatmeal, sandwiches, yogurt, ice cream….. The list goes on!  I love it, I once had a patient ask me if I worked for a Peanut Butter Company I pushed it so much in a counseling session (pretty bad I know). What is not to love, it is packed with protein, power, and nutrients. This here recipe is an adult Peanut Butter and Jelly Greek Yogurt concoction. The bonus is this recipe only takes a few minutes to throw together in the evening before you go to bed. Place it in the refrigerator overnight and in the morning give it a good stir and you will have a happy belly.

Ingredient:

One cup of fat free Greek yogurt plain

1 tablespoon of vanilla protein powder sweetened with Stevia

2 tablespoons of PB2 (powdered peanut butter)

One cup of frozen berries

1 teaspoon of truvia (optional)

Directions:

  1. Place the greek yogurt, PB2, protein powder, and truvia (if using) in a 2 cup mason jar, give it a good stir with a small plastic spatula.
  2. Top the yogurt blend with the frozen berries (my favorite berry mix I buy in bulk from Costco , but you can buy kind of berry you like). Place the seal on the mason jar. Place the container in the refrigerator overnight.
  3. In the morning give the yogurt a really good stir. Look at the outside of the jar and make sure all the ingredients married well and enjoy!
